Greeble

A greeble or nurnie is a small piece of detailing added to break up the surface of an object to add visual interest to a surface or object, particularly in movie special effects. They serve no real purpose other than to add complexity to the object, and cause the flow of the eye over the surface of the object to be interrupted, usually giving the impression of increased size. It is essentially the small detailed technical part of a larger object. The detail can be made from geometric primitives, including cylinders, cubes, and rectangles, combined to create intricate, but meaningless, s...

and the loop and the line above it

int xdev_i;
for(xdev_i = 0; xdev_i < NUMBER_OF_PORTS; xdev_i++)

I assume I'm missing something obvious

and making some derptastic mistake

@murgatroid99 No change.

Oh, was going to say

That's even pickier than usual for a compiler

Wipqozn

@BenBrocka I'm fairly certain this compiler hates me.

murgatroid99

@Wipqozn wait, is the code you posted first in a function or something?

StrixVaria

@murgatroid99 Global code is the best.

That might be the problem, though.

Maybe non-declarations have to be in functions in C.

It's been a long time.

Wipqozn

@murgatroid99 No

This isn't the file with my main()

Ben Brocka

12:42 AM

@StrixVaria wat

StrixVaria

@BenBrocka Not serious.

murgatroid99

@Wipqozn I didn't think you could put loops outside of functions

StrixVaria

@Wipqozn Put the initialization code in a function and then call the init function before you use the rest of the stuff.

You can still keep the actual variables global (shudder) but you have to initialize in a function.

It's so weird to say function instead of method. Stupid Java.

Wipqozn

@StrixVaria NOt sure how else to do it, outside of a global. Or I wouldn't.

StrixVaria

1 min ago, by StrixVaria

@Wipqozn Put the initialization code in a function and then call the init function before you use the rest of the stuff.

Wipqozn

12:45 AM

@StrixVaria I meant not sure how else I could not have the xdev_ports[] variable global

StrixVaria

You can still keep that variable global and initialize it in a function.

Wipqozn

@StrixVaria Yes, but I was replying to your "shudder", i.e. I should avoid gloabls if possible

which I agree with

StrixVaria

It's C. I don't even know how to avoid globals in C.

I'm sure it's possible; I just don't remember how.

murgatroid99

@StrixVaria you could initialize a variable and then pass it around when it's needed

for example

StrixVaria

@murgatroid99 Ugh.

I am spoiled by Java.

murgatroid99

12:47 AM

@StrixVaria Wait, what would you do in java?

Ben Brocka

make everything an object of course

Because you can't not do that

StrixVaria

@murgatroid99 I would have a class encompassing all the crap Wipqozn is trying to do.

Except C doesn't have classes.

Ben Brocka

constructor for the initialization ect

Wipqozn

Now I need to decide where I should put this function call

murgatroid99

@StrixVaria well yeah, but then you would either use statics (which are like globals), or you would pass around object instances

Wipqozn

12:48 AM

this wouldn't be a problem if C would just let me give structs and initial value whent hey were delcared

or do something to them upon being declared

Ben Brocka

Apparently there's a way to make C OO, but you might as well just use C++ if you're going to do that...and I assume you're using C for a reason

Wipqozn

@BenBrocka Required for my assignment.

Ben Brocka

I figured

StrixVaria

@murgatroid99 Somehow statics don't feel as bad as globals even though they're so very similar.

murgatroid99

@Wipqozn why not put it in the same place where you are putting the struct declarations

Wipqozn

12:49 AM

@murgatroid99 That crashes as well.

Ben Brocka

@StrixVaria because every single line of code can't screw with your statics?

Wipqozn

xdev.c:232: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
xdev.c:232: warning: type defaults to âintâ in declaration of âxdev_initâ
xdev.c:232: error: conflicting types for âxdev_initâ
xdev.c:37: error: previous definition of âxdev_initâ was here

murgatroid99

@StrixVaria I know that they're better, but I thought you meant that you would do something different

StrixVaria

@BenBrocka That sounds good.

Wipqozn

That's actually why I didn't put it in a function in the first place

in fact, this doesn't make much sense at all

Blem

@spugsley Ian was right, it was hilarious to watch

Wipqozn

It's saying it was first defined on line 34, but the error is showing on line 32 (which is blank) as being defined already

I'm not sure that would have received the 5 close votes needed for "not constructive", as I'd argue that it doesn't fall under that category, but I've cast my reopen vote. I urge everyone who voted to close as a dupe to reevaluate whether or not they want their vote to stand, and leave it at that.

murgatroid99

@Wipqozn are you importing the header more than once?

Wipqozn

1:09 AM

@murgatroid99 Yes, amongst a few different files.

murgatroid99

@Wipqozn do you have an include guard?

Wipqozn

@murgatroid99 I don't think so.

murgatroid99

Include guard

In the C and C++ programming languages, an #include guard, sometimes called a macro guard, is a particular construct used to avoid the problem of double inclusion when dealing with the include directive. The addition of #include guards to a header file is one way to make that file idempotent. Double inclusion The following C code demonstrates a problem that can arise if #include guards are missing: ;File "grandfather.h" struct foo { int member; }; ;File "father.h" #include "grandfather.h" ;File "child.c" #include "grandfather.h" #include "father.h" Here, the file "child.c"...

you need one

If you don't have an include guard and you #include a header file more than once, you will have problems

Wipqozn

@murgatroid99 Okay. Do you know the syntax for the include-include guard off the top off your head? That only includes the syntax for a guard against multiple #def

murgatroid99

@Wipqozn It's something like the following:

#ifndef HEADER_NAME_GUARD
#define HEADER_NAME_GUARD
#endif

C++ is so 2001

@spugsley Aaah, gotcha. Also also, probably again nothing you can do much about as your screams mostly seem to be reactive, but you sometimes screech/yell loud enough that the sound like, clips out and it's kinda hard on the ears. o_<

spugsley

@FAE moving the mic has helped that as well lol

recording is a very new thing for me hahaha

FAE

Ah, woo!

Fluttershy

lol She's singing. =P

spugsley

also I was stupid nervous about having a mic infront of my face <.< it was so bizarre.

The second video @IanPugsley helped me with is MUCH better

When uploading my epic science spreadsheet to google docs, should I convert to Google format?

FAE

2:57 AM

@spugsley Yeah, I'd never really done anything until the D3 beta stuff I did. Doing that kind of killed my willingness to do more, haha.

Fluttershy

@spugsley Also, if you hate flies so much, try getting the Skatole from the Arcade cup game. =P

spugsley

@Fluttershy yup :) I have. This recording is literally like one of the first few times I EVER played. I have played a LOT now. I actually just beat mom's heart :) :) I was so happy

Fluttershy

@spugsley Weew! Mom's heart's super easy compared to the final boss though... >.>

spugsley

@Fluttershy final boss? O-o

Fluttershy

@spugsley Eeyup.

If you beat Mom's heart without taking damage, you unlock another set of levels.

@Fluttershy I still haven't finished this game. I think I've gotten through Caves 2 and that's it.

spugsley

@Fluttershy oh, you mean "It Lives"

Fluttershy

@spugsley No. That's if you beat the game 9 times.

spugsley

Oh wow okay

He's sneaky like that

spugsley

@Fluttershy don't tell me!

Fluttershy

@spugsley k but good luck. Getting to him is super hard. Every room of the level is a boss.

spugsley

@Fluttershy geez, that sounds brutal

EBongo

Anyone out there ever used Google Docs?

Wipqozn

@EBongo Yes.

Fluttershy

3:03 AM

@spugsley It is. Very hard.

EBongo

@Wipqozn I have a spreadsheet in excel that I want to link to an answer. Google Docs offers me the option to convert to Google Docs format, do I want to do that?

Wipqozn

@EBongo Couldn't tell you. I've never used the spreadsheet feature

Fluttershy

@Wipqozn You accidentally that sentence.

Wipqozn

@Fluttershy I have no idea what you're talking about. You're crazy.

Fluttershy

@Wipqozn ... I'm gonna love and tolerate the shit out of you.

@LessPopMoreFizz Boo. My DVD drive is not capable of ripping Wii discs

EBongo

@Wipqozn I'm going to give it a whirl and see. I think it will be better to not be MS format, for those without Excel. No one should have to use MS Works. No. One.

agent86

@EBongo yeah, you probably want to convert it

Wipqozn

@agent86: Are you fluent with C?

@Wipqozn ??

Wipqozn

@Pubby ?

Pubby

@Wipqozn What about C?

Wipqozn

@Pubby I was curious if there was a way to execute code outside of main, but I managed to find the answer on SO.

Well, I had a slightly different problem, but then I realized my problem was if I could execute code outside of main, which allowed me to actually fidn the problem.

Pubby

Ah, alright.

EBongo

@agent86 Thanks... processing.

Q: What is the Etymology of Mega Man?

Having played the Japanese versions before the American I am aware that Mega Man is called Rock Man in the original Japanese game. This is in reference to Rock and Roll with Mega Man's sister being named Roll. To quote Inafune "This game's always been based around music. You know Rock, and ...
